Freakyforms, your creations,alive review

Freakyforms is a download 3d game that costs 6 Euros.The game gives you unlimited ideas to create birds,bugs,vehicles and much more. In Freakyforms the only limit is your imagination.
All you need to do is create Formees. Formees are your creations. You have 5 hearts at the beginning. To make one Formee you need to give it a heart. After the heart is used it will appear after an hour again. Via streetpass you can wireless swap Formees. You can use your AR card and awake the Formee to live in your living room. You can also design how the world looks and make pictures.

streetpass
Through qr codes you can exchange Fromees with your friends. Formees are easy to create. You have over 500 parts and lots of accessories. By changing their height and size you can get different results.

If you have no idea of how to create one you can get a hint. After you have 5 Formees something cool will happen to your planet. Once you have created a Formee you will go out to explore. While you explore you will meet friends who will play games with you or will have a quest for you.





You will find keys on the ground very often.
They will unlock a treasure with scenery or a friend in it. If it is scenery you may change it if you want to.
There will be trees with food that you will eat. If you eat food you can lay an egg or poop. When you are done exploring you will have to break the eggs you laid. They have coins in them that you use to purchase more forms with. They can also have creation challenges or rare Formee forms.

Star fox 64 3d review


Star Fox 64 3d is a remake from the original Star Fox 64 ( also known as Lylat Wars ) from the Nintendo 64.
I will start off with what was the most impresive thing I saw. The 3d effect. This game had the BEST 3d effect EVER!!!! So if you just want something with an amazing 3d effect, here you go.
The story is a little weird but also fun and motivating at some parts. An evil monkey named Andross has declared war against the Lylat system and General Pepper asks the team Star Fox for help.
The leader of the team Fox McCloud is the character you will play.
There is not much to this game but something makes it a classic to me.
You can upgrade your laser from time to time.
The gyro control is very bad if you play with 3d.
And you can beat the game in 4 hours.
I am playing it through for the third time.



Very fun and motivating
Crazy monkeys ( Who does not like the idea??? )
 BEST 3d effect EVER

Very short
 Bad gyro controls

Nintendo 3ds xl review

Yesterday I went to Gamestop to pick up my preordered red and black Nintendo 3ds xl.
The 3ds xl can do everything the other one could do. It only has a bigger screen and a 4 GB SD card.
I wanted to know how hard it is to transfer data form my normal 3ds to my brand new 3ds xl. It does not work by just trading SD cards, but Nintendo anounced a extra channel do downlaod for free to do easy data transfer. It is able to do all it was supposed to do. I was surprised they did not use the kind of stylus they did with the normal 3ds.


Longer battery life
Bigger screen
Sits well in your hand
4 GB SD card
Data transfer via extra channel
Easy place to pull your stylus out

Not the kind of stylus used in the normal 3ds
No charger included in box
Very heavy

Super Mario 3d Land review

You might be able to guess the story, because it is the same as all Mario jump n` runs. Bowser kidnapps the princess and Mario must save her. The only part different in this one is that there is a storm and it blows Super Leaves all around the area.

Power ups with Mario:

 Super leaves:   Super leaves dress Mario as Tanooki Mario  and give him the ability to slowly glide down in midair to reach a further point. This power up also lets Mario do a powerful tail spin.




















Boomerang flower: The boomerang flower gives Mario a boomerang outfit and gives him a Boomerang to throw at enemies.
Fire Flower:   The fire flower turns Mario into a Fire Mario and lets him throw fire balls at opponents.








Super Star:  The Super Star gives Mario the ability to defeat any enemy by just running into them.










Propellor:  the propellor turns Mario into Propellor Mario and lets him fly high into the sky.


  
There are two help blocks that will help you when you are having some trouble on a course.
Invincible block and
Fly block

Both of these blocks will help you if you are having trouble or are stuck on a course.

On this Mario game there are 8 worlds with 7 parts. One of them is always Bowsers ship or castle. Another one of them is Toads house and he always has a present or surprise for you.

Once you enter a new World Princess Peach will send you a picture that frightens Mario to motivate him more and save the day.
Some of the bad guys wear tanooki tails and always use tail spin attacks.
The beginning of the game is very easy. All the courses are short and do not have many enemies.
To venture forth on some parts you need a lot of coins as an example Bowsers castle in world five you will need 50 coins.
The 3d effect is very good and the music sound very typical Mario. The game also includes binoculars to see where the goal is. this is used by the gyro.  

Once you have saved Peach you will get a picture wiith Luigi being held hostage by Bowser. It only takes one world to save him though. After you save Luigi you can play as Luigi.
Once you have saved Luigi and Peach you also can do special worlds and courses.  


Very fun
Help when you are stuck
Toads house
Needing coins for motivation
 Slowly gets harder
Gyro
Special worlds


Hard to find some coins
short game

Will there be another remake for the 3ds???

With all the remakes from the Nintendo 64, ( Ocarina Of Time, Star Fox 64 ) I really would like a remake of Donkey Kong 64. That was my second favourite game as the 64 was for sale. That was my favourite Jump n`Run game ever. Not even a Mario game can beat that to me. I would gladly pay 40 Euros to have that much fun again. At first on the 2nd Nintendo Direct yesterday, I did not think a new console would be announced. At first when Satoru Shibata was in a game factory I thought he would make the big suprise something like Animal Crossing 3d is coming out next month or another great game is being remade ( ex. Donkey Kong 64 ), but no, a new console has been announced. They probably are planning a very successful year. It would be more successful if Donkey Kong 64 would come out instead of something like Inazuma Eleven Strikes. But all that is only my opinion. Some people might like the Inazuma Eleven series much more than Donkey Kong. But I am not a soccer fan so I do perfer Donkey Kong much more than Inazuma Eleven. Maybe Nintendo is in making of a Donkey Kong 64, but are planning to announce it on the 3rd Nintendo Direct online show.

Yesterday and Today 1

The old days were better almost everyone says. Some may think that is wrong, because technology grows. But they do not notice that its flaws grow just as fast. Here is one of them I am presenting in a new series `Yesterday and Today`.
In this episode I am going to show you a difference that probably very few people have noticed:
Did you notice a difference when you turn a Gameboy on and then your DS ?
Well the difference is, on the gameboy you hear a `ding ` sound. After that The word Gameboy and then Nintendo appears.














On the DS after you turn it on you have to select what you want to do, because after the Gameboy era, you had the possiblity to connect your DS to the internet and load on some more programms.











If you find more flaws or more positive things about the newer technology please leave a comment!!!!

Wii u console and Wii u games preorder price

Today Amazon announced their preorder price for the Wii U. The price is 349,99 Euros. A game for the new console would not be a bargain, it costs 69,99 Euros. But they are only to preorder. So this probably is a higher price than what it will be on its release date the 21st December. This goes for the games ,too. But if this console will be a flop like the 3ds the price will maybe go down quite a bit. The price for the 3ds XL to preorder is 199,99 Euros. That is pretty cheap, because when the 3ds came out it cost 50 Euros more.
